Ready to be humiliated, Wanda?" Wes taunted. "You may have taken the planet, but you're losing this game.
Humans were always surprising me.
Cerulean left. I wondered if she was from Flower Planet. Blue flowers were rare - one might take a name from that.
Lie to me. she whispered. I love you. he said.
There's no good story without romance.
It's important for me to be free and know I'm acting for myself. I do things because I want to, and that's important. You want to be your own person.
I just know I'm too much of a wuss for Stephen King's books. I'm way too chicken to read horror.
Casting is really exciting. With 'Twilight,' I wasn't involved at all with the casting in the original. They kept me in the loop, which was great. They'd be like, 'Hey Kristen Stewart's gonna do it' and I was like, 'Really? Awesome.'
I don't want to be a vampire. A lot of other people do and I think it's that dual nature - we have, you know, terrifying/intriguing.
Vampirism, for me, was a way to live in fantasy and have superpowers, but not just in a really perfect, happy, everything is great way. It's superpowers with a cost. It's having to be the villain, and what do you do about that.
Becoming a vampire is forever. You don't get to change your mind about it later. For me, I think that's one of the big drawbacks with anything that's permanent. How do you know how you're going to feel in five years or 10 years? Even with a tattoo.

I could feel my heart racing in my chest, the blood pulsing hot and fast through my veins again. My lungs filled deep with the sweet scent that came off his skin. It was like there had never been any hole in my chest. I was perfect - not healed, but as if there had been no wound in the first place.
The boy in the pearl gray suit could have been Jane's twin. His hair was darker, and his lips were not as full, but he was just as lovely.
It's easier to come up with new stories than it is to finish the ones you already have. I think every author would feel that way.
